I never make predictions, especially about the future. However, I can show you LCD monitors by Sharp and Samsung that will match a Trinitron in image quality... contrast, DMax, color, resolution... whatever you want. They are expensive but the equal to the best older CRT by Sony Trinitron, Optiquest, ViewSonic and the like. There is no reason not to get one based on quality. The problems: Extremely expensive so far, and they only last four to six years instead of the seven to 12 year life of a good CRT.
The future is clearly in LCD. You can hardly ever find a high quality CRT monitor any more at any price. The LCD monitors are larger in screen size, and becoming larger still. Yet they only take up 8 inches of depth on the desk instead of 30. By next Christmas, you will be able to buy a high quality 30" LCD monitor for $500... maybe sooner I expect you will someday be able to get 36"or 40" LCD monitors relatively cheaply. You will never find a CRT screen that wide due to weight and depth size.
Prepare for the future because it is coming.
